Finance Minister Dave Tancoo says he has taken note of recent public statements made by both the PSA President and the Chief Personnel Officer.
He was responding to questions from 103.1FM News about PSA President Felisha Thomas’s questions as to whether CPO has been delaying negotiations on government’s promised 10 per cent offer.
The Minister says the CPO is the constitutionally established authority responsible for negotiating with recognised majority unions, including the PSA.
Mr. Tancoo says while public comments often form part of the wider dynamics of negotiations, he expects discussions to continue through the proper channels, in accordance with established procedures, and with professionalism and mutual respect.
